Our family was driving through Iowa when we had an accident that required a tow truck to haul our van and travel trailer off the highway. While talking to the tow truck driver back at his place of business, he mentioned the fact that living out in the middle of nowhere is not what it used to be. He said, “We have a lot more crime than we used to.” I asked why that was and he told me that the government has set up programs where they move poor people out to small towns, “and they bring all their crime with them,”

I refuse to lump poor people into that category.

The people who moved here from Chicago were too lazy to get jobs, and in too much of a hurry for their free housing (Apparently, there’s a wait-list in Chicago, but here in Iowa, no such wait). Iowa even ADVERTISED in Chicago.

The welfare queens come, bringing their troubled offspring, and even more troublesome gangsta boyfriends.

The latest outrage? $1 bus rides from Chicago to Iowa City.

Really, who’s going to take advantage of that particular program? Hint: Not city-folk interested in farming!
